When most of us think of the National Geographic, we think of the exotic pictures framed in yellow rectangles on their magazine covers. We know the magazine covers isolated cultures in exotic places and archeology and research on ancient societies, both illustrated with beautiful large photographs. But have you ever checked out their website? Try it! Together with the same wonderful photography, the National Geographic website provides you with daily news, informative maps, interesting articles, and a wide selection of items for purchase at their gift shop.

At the National Geographic online shop, the magazine's penchant for bringing you the best and most fascinating from distant lands continues. Its product range includes maps and globes, books and atlases, clothing and accessories, DVDs and more. Articles in a magazine are necessarily brief, but in the hundreds of books and DVDs for sale on the website, you can find collections of fantastic pictures and engaging facts and ideas on the topics that interest you most. Be sure to check out the clothing and jewelry selections; with so many astonishingly beautiful and tasteful products inspired from all over the world and throughout history, you're sure to find something you'll love. No matter its origin, each product boasts the best possible quality. If you're looking for a gift, the National Geographic website makes it easy to find something to fit the person, the occasion, and your budget. Your purchases help support the magazine's mission of research, education, conservation, and exploration.

Although the website contains a plethora of information, news, and articles to stimulate the most educated and mature minds, these are not the only ones who will enjoy it. If you have children, introduce them to the National Geographic website as well. If the impressive pictures, informative movies, and games on the main website aren't enough to keep their attention, another whole section is devoted to them. This kids section contains more games, fun facts, news, activities, and crafts to engage children of all ages. You can also find a huge variety of gifts at the gift shop that will entertain and educate the kids in your life.

Providing complete customer satisfaction is the primary aim of National Geographic, and it has managed to achieve this goal by the wealth of news and information it offers as well as by its wide range of quality products inspired by the places it brings to your lap.
